Me!

To my readers,

My name is Franky, as you know, I am 12 years old and a student at New Brighton Catholic School. I live with my mum Maria, she is a runner, my dad Temana, or Mana as he likes to be called and he is a painter and enjoys surfing and motorbikes. My brother Temana, but everyone knows him as Neko. He is a competitive surfer and loves his music. We currently have a new addition to family called Buddy. We are fostering him for a whole year, while his owners are on holiday. He is a year old male German wired-longhaired pointer, called Buddy, who loves running.

Anyway about me, I used to do Gymnastics for years & years but I gave that up not too long ago because of a back injury. So now I am looking for new things to do. I have just started dance at Lsod (Leavings School of Dance). I have decided I am going to start Ballet, Contemporary, Jazz and a Strength & Fitness class with one of my old gym coaches.  I occasionally go out surfing with my Brother and Dad and I am part of the surf club North Wai, along with a couple of my friends. I enjoy playing tennis with Mum, taking Buddy for walks on the beach and night walks in the forest with my family. 

While doing quite a few sports, I have made some really good friends.  I like to go to the movies with them, go on walks and adventures, go shopping, and explore our beautiful country together. At school I hang out with Grace, (she is a Cheerleader), Rosie & Jasmine (who like to Surf and play Netball), Anna (who likes Athletics).  My favourite subjects are Art, English & Science.

I hope you enjoyed finding out all about me, don’t forget to comment x.
Thank you Franky.
